Prediction
- This is a clash of philosophies in Norway's second tier and both are likely to come at each other with intent, with Hodd being a young team known for playing high-intensity football and Kongsvinger looking to bounce back after their 2-0 loss away to Stabaek last time out by doing what they did at home to Aasane last week - beating them 3-1.
- Kongsvinger's counter-attacking style should be able to see them edge out their opponents, but the odds of 1.63 for them to do so look a bit short.
